Hi All,

I'm currently rocking an i5 12400 with RTX 3080 12GB.
Cooling - BeQuiet DarkRock 4 Pro, case Fractal Design Torrent.

I've just watched reviews of I5 13600k and decided that I want to upgrade. The question I have is if the power delivery of my MOBO will be sufficient for the newer i5? I5 12400 has max TDP of 117W while i5 13600k has max TDP of 181W according to Intel's website.
My MOBO is Gigabyte H610M S2H DDR4 (rev. 1.0) and it handles i5 12400 without an issue. Not even remotely close to throttling under any circumstances, I throw at it. I don't need any more AIO or functionality, it was a conscious pick.

Thanks for any input!
 
Solution
It will run with the bios update.
You could try it.
But, the lack of an extra 8 pin power to the motherboard as well as no vrm cooling would indicate that your turbo performance will not be what the processor is capable of.

TBH I'd wait for the i5 13400 / 13400F.
